北京新世纪广场的记者会现场

终于站在北京新世纪广场的记者会现场。
I’m finally at the press conference in Beijing’s New Century Square.

好不容易的安排,现在紧张的是,记者会来吗?在北京有一些记者认识我,但是还没有来到那种一定来或自动来的。
It was a tedious arrangement. And right now, I'm anxious about whether the reporters will turn up? Some reporters do know me in Beijing, but not close to the extent that they will just turn up on their own.

也许他们有其他的新闻要追,我们就惨了。。。现在,我能做的就是先---笑
Perhaps they might have some other news to catch up on, then we’ll be in trouble… All I can do first is to… SMILE.



然后自己摆一个自以为很潇洒的姿势,消除紧张。。。
Then strike a “I think I’m very handsome” pose to calm myself down…

这次,刚好创锐考完了,可惜,赐健(Joshua)在当兵,那天电他告诉他我们的行程,他表现的很酷,还告诉我,他正要到兵营报到,部队要到澳洲演习了。
也好,到澳洲去也算出国,我当兵的日子也是很期待出国的。
This round, Shawn Lee has finished his exams, but unfortunately, Joshua Ang is serving his National Service (NS). I rang him the other day to tell him our schedules. He was quite cool about it and even told me he’s on his way back to camp. His platoon is going for training in Australia. Not too bad, since going to Australia is also considered an overseas trip. When I was doing my NS, I also looked forward to getting overseas posting.

记者会开始了,糟了,只有我们两个,台上如此冷清,几可怕一下咯。。。
看我,还讲得几爽一下。
The press conference has started. And gosh, there’s only the 2 of us on stage, so lonely, so scary leh… And see, I talk until so shiok.

我在讲的时候,创锐还摆一个美美的姿势,你看,帅哥就是帅哥咯,什么角度拍照都很好看。我就不一样,我这个角度还可以,其他的角度就会看到我的下巴的菱角,几难看一下咯。
When I was making a speech, Shawn sat in a very nice posture. See? Handsome boy is always a handsome boy. He always look good no matter the pictures was taken from any angle. Unfortunately can’t say the same for me. From this angle still OK. But if taken from any other angle, you will notice my double chin, horrible looking lor.


你们一定觉得很奇怪,为什么我的文章这么多,几什么一下的,因为,我的电影,窿的传人,正在做最后最后的修饰,我在编写一些VO的时候,走的就是这个路线,几好玩一下。。。
You guys must be wondering why I punctuate my blog (Chinese version) with so many “几什么一下” (very what hor/lor/leh). That’s because my new movie Ah Long Pte Ltd is in the final editing process. And when I’m scripting the VO, I used a lot of this. Quite fun one lor…


站在旁边的就是我们魅力的主持,她看小孩不笨的时候,真的是情绪有起伏,还来不及跟她问清楚,她一结束就鸟兽散了,哈哈。。可惜,否则给你们看看她也几赚到一下。
Standing besides the stage is a very attractive looking emcee. When she was watching I NOT STUPID, she got really emotional. And even before I could ask her, she fled the moment the show ended. Haha… Pity, otherwise I could show you her picture, and you will also stand to gain lor!


我们台下会讲得那么爽,因为台下的记者还真的很给面子很赏脸,看了我们的媒体预映之后都留下来采访,这是我第一次接触北京的媒体,来了很多报社杂志还有电视台,网站等等,这次的电影公司也安排的真好,那个负责人的名字叫王杰,真的是王杰,不过她是一个女生,今天太匆忙没时间拍她的照片,下来一定不放过。
We were talking until quite shiok on stage because the reporters really gave face. After watching the media preview, all the reporters stayed back for the interview. This is the first time I met the press in Beijing. There were many reporters from various magazines and newspapers, TV stations as well as websites etc. This time the movie company organized it very well. The person in charge is called Wang Jie. It’s true, Wang Jie, but she’s a lady. Today was quite a rush, so I didn’t get a chance to take some photos with her. Will definitely do it next time.



这张是记者发问问题,这位记者说,她很喜欢小孩不笨,说拍得很好看,听到这些,这个就是导演最大的满足感,尤其是从,看很多来自世界各国电影的记者,会给我的电影这样的评语,真的是非常感动。
This picture shows the reporters asking some questions. This lady was saying that she liked I NOT STUPID very much. She said it was well directed. This was indeed very rewarding to a director. Especially if movie reporters are from all over the world and would give me such positive comments. I felt really touched.



帅哥就是这样,立刻就有美女要求拍照,特此声明,这个女影迷不是自己安排的哦。。。
Handsome guy just get all the luck; pretty girl just rush to have their photos taken together. And I must clarify; this female fan was not pre-arranged by us ah…



我呢?没有办法就只好拉创锐跟我拍照啦,帅哥和导演的差别就在这边了。
As for me, no choice but to take picture with Shawn lor. That’s the difference between a handsome boy and a Film Director….



觉得这张也拍的不错。
I think this picture also not badly taken.



这张是在接受个别访问时候,我的神态,嘻嘻。。。觉得我瘦了吗?哈哈。。。
This was taken during a solo interview. See my expression, hehe… Did you notice that I lost weight? Haha…


这次的放映,多亏媒体局的安排,至少打开了一道门,很重要的一道门。
Really thankful to MDA for arranging this screening. At least it has opened a door to the China Market. A very important door.

宣传场面不错嘛!

从照片上看来的确有点消瘦。。。是角度问题吗?还是高兴到吃不下。。。真的瘦了?

希望“小孩不笨2”在中国有很好的成绩。

still waiting for the english translation leh...

当时说你们到北京拍小孩不笨中国版时,我和中国朋友谈谈,我们没人认为以中国现在的教育课题,你们会成功。因为这类政治课题在中国教育制度下蛮敏感。

现在华人娱乐圈乱七八糟...

既然意外地能在中国开拍...老男人希望梁家班拿出素质,把我们的愿望实现...那就是以新加坡人的力量振兴华人娱乐事业。

现在开戏,只管钱。

羡慕-ing。

如果你只是打算赚大钱...那就算了。

I have been watching the reruns of I not stupid 2 on mobtv. Fantastic.

The only problem is that we kept going "peng san" every few minutes of the show.

Great job!
